Why do sponsors resell my email?!

I use a unique email for all the sponsor I signup for. This email has never been on a website and I only use it for sponsors. Well now im getting like 10+ spam emails a day to this email?! Go Fuck Yourself

I do the same thing, an exclusive email addresses for each sponsor.

It amazes me how outspoken some of these sponsors are about spam, in yet...

Have you considered that people may be adding words like 'ccbill' or 'topbucks' (or whatever) to their dictionary attacks?

We do not sell any webmaster list. We have rented our list oh 1 year ago to Consumption Junction for a webmaster mailing.

Please do not include our name in any thread that we sell our webmaster list.

Why on earth would a company my size do something like that.

Kills me when small program owners come on GFY and bash other companies thinking this will help their sales.

You didnt resell your webmasters list but you, rented it out so we can get spammed? How do you know what CJ did with that list, and didnt "rent" it out also?
BTW i have nothing against platinum, good program.
